The Fletcher House is no more.
The old name was left somewhere
about the old site. when the last Sec
ton of the big hotel was moved.
The building now occupies its new
location, and part Of the stone foun-
dation has already been completed.
1t will hereafter be known as the
Churchill House. The huge build.
ing was readily moved, tackle of
eleven blocks, and two windlass caus-
ed it to move along with less fuss and
trouble than is often experienced in
moving an ordinary dwelling. Turn
ing the building one-quarter round
caused the most trouble. The hotel
gives that part of First street, from
Water to River street, an imposing
appearance, and when completed, the
Churchill House will be a great i'm
provement to the city, and, we be-
lieve, of great benefit, and for which
Alpena is indebted TO the enterprise
Of the Messrs. Churchill.

Capering Winds,

A wind storm which swept over the
county last Friday night did consider
able damage In all localities and In the
matter Of dislodging signs from their
moorings successfully competed with
the proyerbial small boy Oh Halloween.
The track OF the storm was marked by
Frustrated stacks OF hay and grain, out
buildings dislodged from foundations
and In some cases entirely torn To
pieces. The greatest damage Of which
we have heard was in the destruction
of the barn recently completed on the
farm of John Chamberlain, some four
miles south of town. IL was occupied
on this terrible night by two boys, who
had been living in the barn since its
completion. When the winds grew
furious they gathered their wraps
about them and started TO seek shelter
in cave hard by, but had only reached
the outside when the destructive
blast caught the timbers and
threw them disjointed and broken
from the foundation. The lads
were caught In the flying debris,
and but for the fact that one timber
found n resting place on nail keg one
of the lads would have been been crush
ed by its weight, for, as it was he was
pinned to to the position until aid came
to his relief. The barn was built by
Contractor Creveling, upon whom no
blame rests, as it was upon pins, en-
abling the wind to get underneath and
bodily lift 1t from the position. Mr..
Crevelng thinks 1t can be rebuilt ON u
slightly smaller scale at an expense of
about $50 for new lumber. Mr.. Grey
cling presented Mr.. Chamberlain with
S2Oto help defray that expense.
A harm nearing completion on the
farm of T. ii. Beason was also partially
demolished, though the actual damage
will not be as great as in the former
case.
The scuttle was blown from the
court house, and it went through the
roof of Henry Rohrback's house and
would have gone to the cellar but for
the fact that 1t struck and was stopped
by a partition, Henry was somewhat
Suspicious of the visitor that came
through the roof, but on investigation
became quieter. The timbers from
his lumber yard were dying so promis-
cuously that he was admonishea not
to venture out till the winds subsidized,

Union Meeting.

A series of religious meetings under
the auspices Of the several church soci-
cites OF the city, was commenced at the
Methodist church on Monday evening,
where they will be held during the week
the resident pastors alternating IN con-
Quoting the service. II Is hoped that
an interest may be awakened and the
people led TO give attendance, and
aroused to thoughts upon the subject
which Is so ably presented by earnest
and solicitous pastors. The reverend
gentlemen engaged In the work have
already accomplished great good In
cultivating spirit of harmony In and
between the organizations, have persons
ally found warm places In the hearts Of
our people, and II may be- confidently
believed that their labors will bear rich
and abundant frlitage. There Is
broad field for their labors In our fair
young city, composed SO largely of men
and women In early years, bright, active
andenterprising, but where itmust be nd
mitted, the question of greatest impor.
lance has been made secondary 20
worldly interests. THE REPUBLICAN,
hopes to see an interest manifested by
those already identified with religious
work, in order that Others may he en-
couraged ia attend the meetings and
give heed TO the words of the worthy
ministers. The meetings will be con,
tinued indefinitely.

Miss Brockway was In her 20th year,
noble woman in character and attain.
ments and for whom there seemed u
bright and beautiful life Of many years.
Devoted to her parents, warm in her af
lection for her only sister and her two
brothers, bright and merry In disposi.
ton, strong In beautiful character and
rich in qualities of mind and heart, she
was the pride OF the family circle and q
favorite of q wide circle of friends.
Born In Machias, N. Y. Feb. 22, 1853,
she came with her parents to the pres
ent home of the latter In 1860. II Is hard
to realize that she Is indeed gone TO the
other world and that the home she made
bright and happy and the friends she
ennobled and blessed will see her no
more. The bereavement Is a heavy
one, and one that calls out most tender
sympathy from the large circle Of nc
quaintances and friends Of the family.

THERE are some folk SO lily in
formed as to the history Of the
world, that they incline to the be
lief that the Missouri Compromise
was the first Que on record. In
this, they are lamentably mistaken.
For years the Irish people were
divided as to the date of st. Pat
rick's birth, some declaring that
he was born on the Sth OF March,
while others insisted that he was
born On the 9th. For centuries,
the clans fought, until finally IA
priest interviewed, and suggested
as a compromise, tina the 5 ana
9 be added together, and both
sides being tired Of contention, ac,
ceptcd the proposition, and since
then, the 18th is St. Patrick s
birth day, whethcrit it is 50 or not.

EAGLE GREEK.

Ed. LEADER -
In compliance with your wishes,
| write you on the subject OF the
new county line between Lincoln
and Dona Ana, lately established by
/ the Territorial Legislature of New
Mexico, and what the people here
think OF it.
That this high handed and out
rageous proceeding has wrought
the most cruel injustice, that it is
the most iniquitous and damnable
wrong that was ever perpetrated
upon a people, there is no longer
room for doubt. Just think OF it ;
we, the people Of Eagle Creek, and
Ruidoso, living within 20 geo
graphical miles of the county seat
OF Lincoln, will be compelled to
drag ourselves over two ranges OF
mountains and across an alkali
desert Of G5 miles wide, IN all, 100
miles travel, to Las Cruces, as a
county seat.
OF course hundreds Of others
will suffer consequent upon this
change, to say nothing OF the loss
sustained to Lincoln County by
this division.
Never in the history Of Irnperi-
alism, despotism and usurpation,
was the rgbts. and prer gatives of a
people 50 shamofully trainpled
upon.
In ,his, every principle Of com
mon justice was tlagrantly violated,
as well as constitutional law.
Common justice, common sense,
and our future welfare, demands
that we should not submit.
All shame upon Il man, or set OF
men. whowould lend their names to
such scheme. 1t is equally gull
ty IL the man thar represented
Dona Ana Co.. in making this q
gantic steal. as it was in our repre-
sentative III lending them his aid.
Dut what better can we expect OF
men whose ignorance is their only
virtue: Damocles boosted OF his
power and luxurious living,
but he feared the sword may the
sword OF Damocles hang above
the heads Of those who conspired
to inhict this great wrong, until
this same great wrong is righted.
Yours Respectfully,

The Interpreter, in several re-
cent articles, has made very ear
nest appeals to our citizens to give
liberal assistance to Rev. w Monk
in erecting a church edifice Tor the
NJ Z. Church South. 1t is Ger
tainly very desirable that White
Oaks be supplied at the earliest
possible day with Il good and sub
stahtial church building. But, are
there not ether public interests and
enterprises, Of more needful and
pressing character, to which public
attention may be directed!
What about the education Of our
children and youth, and Il suitable
building in which to carry forward
this great and important work .
The future Of our town and county
depends largely upon the 1ntcllec
tual training Of cur children. This
cannot be done, with true measure
ct success, under present condi-

graded school. We must have ia
cilities for higher training, and Il

secured in our Iiall, or in any 9th

need II suitable building. This we
must have at an carry day, or sac
